Momotombo maintains direct relations with the small traditional companies that supply the highly selected cocoa, which is transformed into quality chocolate in the artisan factory of Managua. Other ingredients such as cane sugar, dried and fresh fruit, coffee and spices are also available from local producers of excellence.
The recipes do not use lecithin and vanillin, but only local products, ensuring that the added value is to the benefit of the native populations of the area.
